Staff Roles and Responsibilities

Staff Roles and Responsibilities

The overall goal of this assignment is to familiarize students with the main categories commonly found in a Data Management Plan (DMP). Students will review a sponsor’s data management plan and then create a 5 – 6 page DMP for the study site (Good Clinical Trials). The DMP will be based on A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Phase 3 Clinical Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of XYZ Versus Corticosteroid for the Treatment of Lateral Epocondylitis. For this assignment, all data capture is electronic.

Please do not “cut and paste” from the SWP Data Plan example into the template; use your own words. You will be penalized if you “cut and paste” from someone else’s work.
